What are your thoughts on some of the announcements made? I personally am extremely excited for Batman Arkham City. I'll update as the show goes on.

Update 1 - Mass Effect 3!

Elder Scrolls V announced!
That trailer was epic! I personally have never played Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion but have it. I really should so I'll be ready for Elder Scrolls V since it seems to be a sequel to Oblivion.

This award show gets more terrible every year. Happy about several of the announcements tho, mainly Uncharted 3 and Elder Scrolls V.

I watched it for the announcements more than anything. The show itself was horrendous, with Neil Patrick Harris being a painfully unfunny host. Still, Arkhan City was the highlight for me.

I watched this show the past 2 years and thought it was extremely poorly done both times. Skipped out on watching it this year. But a few great trailers from it.
Mass Effect 3 - We knew already
Uncharted 3 - We knew already
Elder Scrolls V - Want to see gameplay, but excited nonetheless

All three games I'm looking forward to playing though.

Just realized a bunch of categories didn't even show. Too busy saying non-funny jokes I assume.

I'm so hyped for Elder Scrolls V, and there's only one trailer released, if it's anywhere near as good as IV 2011 will be perfect.

I sat through all two hours. Outside of the game announcements, the whole show was pretty substandard. Here's my blog post on the topic: http://theconsuminator.blogspot.com/2010/12/impressions-2010-spike-video-game.html

excited for Elder Scrolls, Mass Effect 3 and Resistance 3. Forza 4 and inSane might as well have not even bothered to be mentioned they are far off.

Forza 4 comes out Fall of 2011 so its fine that it was shown, but Prototype 2 could of waited to be unveiled at next years e3, and inSane didnt need to be shown at all really, 2013 is a long ways away.

How can a game that has been out for only a month or less get Best Action Adventure? Especially a game that is notorious in its series of being completely repetitive.

I can't stand these awards. They pick out the best selling, biggest budget, most advertised games and say those were the best. Seems to happen every year, The announcements are the only good things to ever come out of it.

I was glad Red Dead got GOTY, though of course i thought ME2 deserved it more.
The thing i hate about these awards shows is that they almost completely ignore the Wii titles. I mean IMO Nintendo had the best year out of everyone as far as exclusives go. Also, games like Vanquish and Enslaved deserved SOME sort of nomination, as they were both amazing games.

oh well, what do you expect from Spike tv...

I totally agree but that's how it is because they have to make money. After all, the developers and publishers of these "big games" are the ones with the money. By the way, I can't believe I forgot to mention the Mortal Kombat trailer with Kratos. Although there was no gameplay, it was epic. It's a definite buy for me.

Woods getting character of the year is hilarious. I mean really? Ezio and Marston are such better characters. But overall I'm happy with the list espically Red Dead Redemption wiining game of the year.
